The Department Head selects Teaching Assistants. Openings may arise throughout the months prior to the beginning of classes.
Each faculty member selects his/her own Research Assistants (RA). You may email faculty members whose research area is similar to your interests. Alternatively you could choose to submit a RA application form . The list of all current accepted applicants is sent to all faculty from time to time, so that they are aware of your application. Openings may arise throughout the year, as funds become available.
Many computer science graduate students find assistantships in other departments around the campus where their knowledge and skills are needed. However, we do not coordinate opportunities in other departments. Each department has its own assistantship process.
This application applies only to our department. Other departments in the University have their own assistantship process.
CSE Department's Graduate Studies Committee will award a few Teaching Assistant (TA) positions to outstanding new graduate students annually.
The TA offer will include financial support for one semester, consisting of 100% of tuition and fees plus a stipend at the department's current rate for first time teaching assistants.
Renewal for a second semester (Fall/Spring) as a TA will be based on satisfactory academic progress and satisfactory performance of TA duties.
There will be no further renewals after the second academic year. We expect students to find other financial support for the remainder of their studies, typically a Research Assistant (RA) position.
Financial support decisions will begin March 15 under this competition.

We recommend that an applicant submit a complete admission application package by February 15.
We have a year-round continuous process for admission decisions, which is completely separate from the process for selection of teaching assistants.
The CSE Department Head will select all other Teaching Assistants, some of whom may be new graduate students. See the application form above.
